It's still +EV to push against the risk they have that.

Do you see why?

Alright Alright Alright. I regret not pushing. It was relative -EV to check. I understand.
Unforunately, I didn't have my "Where's Mike" strategy formulated before it happened.
WHen Mike came on the table, I just thought "hopefully everyone checks down to see the river"
If I had flopped the nuts, I would have had 3 betting rounds to realize correct strategy. But, I was on about 7 tables, I went runner-runner to hit the nuts. I briefly thought "should I push" then "well, what if they fold - ok, I check"

Don't you ever make those decisions where you realize if you had 10 more seconds you would have made the right decision. The fact that this is the first and last time I've ever been involved in the "Where's Mike" promotion caused this to be one of those cases.

Ohh, where the hell did you get $1200? It was about $550 if I pushed and got called 3 ways.

Hey, at least I didn't fold preflop like UTG.

You keep talking about a "Where's Mike" strategy, the only strategy is don't fold.

I didn't say it isn't. I just said it would be funny.
PS- "do you see why" is gay.

Yeah. I really shouldn't explain to the OP how this was clearly a mistake.

The few. The proud. The elitist. Go 2+2.
